MC78L05ACDR2G

onsemi · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOIC-8

MC78L05ACDR2G from onsemi, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VOUT power_out Regulated +5.0 V output (4.8-5.2 V typ at 25 degC). Sources up to 100 mA. Recommended 0.1 uF ceramic to GND for transient response (not required for stability).
2 GND power_in Ground reference. Electrically common to die attach flag along with pins 3, 6, 7 for improved thermal dissipation; connect all four to the ground copper pour.
3 GND power_in Ground reference. Electrically common to die attach flag along with pins 2, 6, 7; connect to ground copper for thermal dissipation.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to ground.
5 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to ground.
6 GND power_in Ground reference. Electrically common to die attach flag along with pins 2, 3, 7; connect to ground copper for thermal dissipation.
7 GND power_in Ground reference. Electrically common to die attach flag along with pins 2, 3, 6; connect to ground copper for thermal dissipation.
8 VIN power_in Unregulated positive input. Absolute max 30 Vdc for the 5 V version; typical operating range 7 V to 20 V. Recommended 0.33 uF ceramic to GND if regulator is remote from the bulk supply filter.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
mc78l05acdr2g.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
mc78l05acdr2g-etched.step 2.6 MB You want the part with MC78L05ACDR2G already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 641 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: onsemi datasheet (14 pp, sha256 5e07299724d54f75, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
